FWOP stands for "for want of prosecution". A FWOP notice is generated when there has been no activity in a case for some period of time (some jurisidctions require no case activity for over 1 year). If the notice period expires without a party creating any case activity, then the case can be dismissed "for want of prosecution".

How long is the notice period for FWOP?

WHAT notice are you referring to, and HOW was the charge dismissed? Insufficient information is given.If a charge has been dismissed by the court FWOP (For Want of Prosectuion), then it is dismissed upon the judge's ruling.However, the judge MAY have dismissed the charge either WITH prejudice or WITHOUT prejudice.With prejudice means that particular charge is gone forever.Without prjudice means the prosecution or plaintiff may approach the court at a later time and re-institute the charge or suit.


What happens after an fwop notice is filed in court?

FWOP = For Want (i.e.: lack) of Prosecution. The way the question is worded it sounds as if the defense is filing a motion to dismiss the case - "for want of prosecution." If the judge agrees, it depends entirely on whether they dismiss the case WITH prejudice or WITHOUT prejudice. If it is WITHOUT prejudice the case COULD be opened again by the prosecution. If it is WITH prejudice the case is over and finished and can never be brought again (for THIS particular offense).
